Join us in celebrating them!

Video gaming with another person doesn’t have to be about the rivalry, about defeating “player 2″ to be victorious. No! Video games can require actually working with the person next to you, about co-operating to win! If you played to win, you had to play together!

Join us, as we celebrate those game experiences where you had to team up with other players to win.

We are lining up some tremendous co-op games experiences for you to play against fellow gamers on the night, with some little twists. There’ll be some seriously awesome talks (just look to the right, user!). We’ll be treating you to an exciting video game quiz where you’ll have to work with your fellow teammates. And we could be throwing in more!

IT’S NOT JUST CO-OP IN THE GAMES WE’RE PLAYING ON THE NIGHT.

Us GiG guys are also going to co-op – with some special games masters lined up to talk at this Get Into Gaming!

TRISTAN DONOVAN

The journalist and author of the ace history of video games Replay will be travelling up just to join us for the evening! Tristan will be talking about the evolution of the co-op video game experience – bringing insight, detail, and possibly some pretty slides to look at as well!

JAMIE SEFTON

The man who represents the Yorkshire video game scene is taking time out from “business lunches” to take the stage and talk to you about his amazing career spent in the world of video games. From his earlier days writing and then editing magazines to his current role, Jamie is game to GiG attendees for the evening!
